How To Open Bitcoin Account (Easiest Method)

Today i will guide on how to open bitcoin account to enable send and receive bitcoin worldwide.

You cannot just open a bitcoin account and put money in and out. To store your coins, you’ll need a wallet or at least a Bitcoin address and a private key. On a very basic level, the address functions like a bank account number and the private key is like your signature or password to a netbank.

Okay, but how will you access your coins? You have to download a digital wallet to your computer/phone. Cryptocurrency wallets store your address and private key, they’re functioning like a netbank. You can receive and send amounts.

It’s difficult to choose from the millions of Bitcoin wallets.

I would recommend the blockchain.info wallet . Go and have a look at it, or do some research and find the best for you. The easiest way is to add a wallet extension to your browser.

Edit: I’ve forgotten to mention Coinbase and Gemini. These sites function like a PayPal account, all you have to do is to sign up. Can be very comfortable. However, when it comes to cryptocoins I don’t really trust in third party services because I can’t always access my private key.
